I'm actually listening to the whole "Pretty Hate Machine" album, but as the soundquality and Trent Reznor's hair are not too bad in this video... Always cool to hear 80ies pop deconstructed, though this particular song still seriously rocks in live concerts nowadays (been to avenches earlier this year).

Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition is on the way...
It might actually just as well be non sarcastic, as I did spend hours reading rumors and snippets of facts given by the Wizards and came to about the same conclusion. At first I even was positively excited about Living FR, for example, and curious about the new abilities dependent on your characters race, but now, after more and more disappointing information, I sure can't say much more than that critisised post did. I'll certainly have a look at the new core rules when they come out, but right now I don't see a realistic chance of me ever be able to enjoy a game set 4E FR, let alone running a round set in these new, bland and simplified surroundings devoid of any FR-feel they seem to be creating.

That's why I need some ebm remixes that are easy to swallow for a change, like :wumpscut: - Thorns (Distant vocals version)

Game always starts in window, won't go fullscreen
Using Alt + Enter (toggels fullscreen to window and back for some games) doesn't work?

Heh, used to listen to this via winamp, because of the high quality stream Nowadays it's almost always sanctuary radio, unless I'm not in the mood for the long ebm sections... dissection - black horizon I'm never quite sure about bm, do I like it now or don't I?

People on youtube didn't misinterpret this song as much as "die flut". I'm glad about that, as youtube in most other cases seems to be an attraction point for all kinds of stupid people in general and fascists, xenophobians (?) and gay-haters in particular...

US shoppers killed in gun rampage
Yes, I'm waiting for games to be blamed, too... A couple of days ago, a guy (having a criminal record with violence) returning from military shot a girl with his ordinance weapon (swiss military service is compulsory, and you take your gun home when not on duty). Who's to blame? It was not military service where he learnt how to kill, no, it was "killer games". So in this case, it will be the same "responsible" that will be found...

What is with the new forum lay out?
I'm used to only be able to edit my posts if they're the last ones in a thread, so... Editing is actually not restricted enough on this forum

He already owns a 7900GT and probably doesn't want a slower one to replace it Walsingham: if you consider the "dual wielding" way, make sure your mainboard is certified for either SLI (--> nVidia cards) or Crossfire (--> ATI cards), and then buy a card that actually supports this (not all do, especially if you're on tight budget).

Flemish? I could guess some words, most probably. If haruskoz (never heard of that...) is some kind of old german, it should be do-able. celtic is a bigger problem, as that branch of indo-european splits be pretty early, just like indian, iranian iirc, so it most probably would be beyond my capabilities anyway... listening to Bush - Superman (ignore the video, way cooler from CD, but couldn't find decent youtube version to post here) just a little more sound, a little more sound... ah, I always have to turn up the volume while listening to this song Farmer Boys - We sow the storm Popmetal? Fun! Radiohead - Creep I've got to come down, got work to do *shigh* Some more Radiohead will help

Planescape: Torment
Well, drunk-style typos aside, I actually have to agree with him. The companions as well as some other aspects of MotB reminded me of PS:T. Probably that it had some console-game aspects, probably just that it was one of the best CRPGs I've played so far: Original story, unique companions, beautiful environments, strange items...
